I'm right with you on new cars. I saw the rendering of the new S class interior and I wept a little bit.
Thx. Yeah seemed more 996 focused here. Figure I could learn more.

Hmm, 81k on the current IMS bearing. If it was gonna let go, it probably would've done so by now. '00 model year, so there's a good likelihood it's a dual row. I'd probably wait to do the IMS bearing on the next clutch change (or the next time you drop the engine or tranny).

Just go OEM on the motor mounts. Easy to swap out yourself. Here is a link to the part on a good vendor's website (small company with great prices & great customer service - owned by a guy who owns a 996), $240 for the pair:
